Father of the Cyborgs
By David Burke
In 2014, neurologist Phil Kennedy shocked the world when he travelled to Belize to implant an electrode in his brain, thus becoming 'the father of the Cyborgs'. Whether a genius pioneer or a mad scientist, Kennedy has never ceased to stretch the boundaries of science. But he also poses a crucial question: by modifying our bodies and brains, do we become superhuman or rather grow dependent on machines that could go wrong at any moment?
